Heres to hoping for an Xcom Team based MMO FPs, tribes-style. like planetside, except it doesn't suck the gay right out of liberace's anus.

Dear lord..... I'm going to start a cult worshipping your X-Com designs. Just one question though: when do we get to see a Muton or a tasoth?

Are you a developer? Or just a hobbyist?

Damn, that's good. It's also good to know that the X-COM remake team had someone like you on the team. :)

Is this going to be a mod or are you creating your own engine? Are you going for a strict graphical remake or are you actually recreating the game? Do you have a website for this project?

Very impressive piece of work. I've always hoped somebody would remake UFO Defense sooner or later (my absolute FAVORITE game of all time). Good luck with it!

So, is it the same game with updated graphics, or will it feature new weapons and whatnot.

Anyone rememeber X-edit?
That was a fun little program....got me some nifty weps with that thing! LOL


.*Sigh...
I really sucked at Xcom, sadly.

I hope this takes off.

I actually still play the old game from time to time...

I hope you guys work out the balance issues of the original game. Psi attack were so potent (even on easy) that it basically just came down to luck during the final missions.

I always thought that the game should be built around the inability to save during a mission which would mean lowering the chances of having the troops killed.

But hey, I'm just glad someone has FINALLY decided to update what has to be the greatest game ever made. Thank you so, so much for doing this. I will be keeping an eye on the project in the future.

We don't have set us a finish date. So that we don't be under release pressure. Maybe 2004-2005.

You don't need to order. It's for free. From fan's to fan's.

Not really... no.
